    Or they could get to the finals this year. It ain't over yet

    Or he could get a consistent 18 footer and dominate the league

    Somebody like the Magic, Phoenix or Detroit should really try and steal Brogdon from Milwaukee. He’s not quite a star but I think he can be a point guard on a championship team ala Tony Parker. That guy is absolutely not afraid and he is flat out a very good player. Dude joined the 40-50-90 club in only his second season.

    I think whoever comes out of the East is getting swept by GState.

    1. GState is going to be super rested and fresh, while both east teams are going to be tired and sore.

    2. Both east teams have trouble scoring consistently while GState consistently hits their open shots.

    3. Kerr is going to come up with a master plan to exploit either teams weaknesses and both east teams have a few. GState’s only weakness is probably having a thin bench which isn’t even that thin and it’s kind of a moot weakness because of point #1.

    This all includes the fact that I think Durant has played his last game for GState.

    If it’s the Raptors, they’ll goon Leonard out of the finals and the rest of the team will fold like Michael Spinks against Tyson.

    Why, WHY Would Milwaukee Even ENTERTAIN the Idea of Feeding the Troll that Is Drake???...The Instant Budenholzer, Giannis, Giannis' Agent and Whomever Else Bitched About Drake's Courtside Antics, REED SMH'ed...

    And Then, You LOSE Game 5, Setting Up an Elimination Game IN TORONTO, In Front of the Attention Whore You Complained About in Game 4...If Drake Irritated You Then, Best Believe He'll Be EXTRA for Game 6 Tonight...

    This Shows the Lack of Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeep Playoff EXPERIENCE Milwaukee Has and Giannis' LACK of Familiarity w/American Basketball Culture...

    In This Capacity, Drake is Spike Lee...Period...A Dick Riding FAN, Simple As....You Deal w/Fans The Way Reggie Miller Dealt w/Spike; Kick Their Teams Ass...When Their Team is Getting Beat There's Very Little for Them to Say...

    What You DON'T Do is Cry to the Media and Make it OBVIOUS the Dick Riding FAN is Getting Under Your Skin...

    If Toronto can close it out today we get the Durant Leonard matchup with both less than 100%

    If Toronto wins the series, I would have expected it to be from being the more vastly experienced playoff team, not because midget VanVleet decided to become Reggie Miller

    GS would have swept the woefully inexperienced Buck team

    Toronto is a case where KD comes back for game 3 and steals the MVP from Curry en route to a 4-2 victory which would get him to do a $250 million extension

    Durant has problems with Leonard even when hes 100%

    Hes supposed to miss at least game 1

    Curry and Thompson will have difficulties vs the defense of Toronto and be inconsistent as usual in the finals. On top of that igoudala is gimpy

    They DON’T Need Durant to Beat Toronto.

    Not Only is REED Predicting GS in 5 (Max) With or Without KD, REED Is Predicting a Game 1 Win for GS.

    Toronto will at least play defense against Golden State. Portland was a fucking sieve. Matched up horribly.

    If Toronto chooses to use Kawhi to harass Curry on defense, he will shut him down. He's way too long for Curry to deal with, and he'll have to drive and distribute instead. Golden State needs Durant to come back at some point.

    Don't forget. Toronto has home court if this goes 7.

    No but I dont think Portland is a top 4 team in the east, and they looked burnt out. Plus lillard was probably injured

    Boston's Chemistry was Such a Mess it's Not Hard Fathoming Portland Beating Them in a Series...Ditto for Philly, Given Embiid's Inconsistency and Simmons' Propensity to Disappear...

    Lillard Didn't Get Hurt til Late Game 3, if REED's Not Mistaken...The Writing was Already on the Wall for them, By Then...

    You and REED Could Go Back and Forth on This Forever...We'll Start Getting Answers Thursday Night...

    The best thing a player can do to make a fan feel like shit is to completely ignore them. I don’t care what they say or how racist they get if a player doesn’t look at the heckler and just pretend they don’t exist I guarantee that pisses the hecklers off more than anything.
    On the contrary, as soon as a player acknowledges a heckling fan they bring that fan into their world which completely makes their day.

    I heard on a podcast that after their game six defeat, Harden and Chris Paul got into a bit of an argument that ended with Paul storming out of the facility clearly upset. At the post game presser Harden was asked about future changes and he said “I know what does need to change”, or something along those lines.

    Sounds like Harden might be wanting Paul gone and the only team dumb enough to trade for him would probably be the Lakers.

    Houston wont be able to move Paul and his ridiculous contract unless they take back some even worse dead weight deals

    I don’t know. The Lakers are a shit show with terrible ownership and their organization is only going to get worse. They’re going to keep making win-now type moves because of their rabid delusional fan base and the Lebron window which is just a crack at this point. Trading for CP3 is the exact type of dumb move they would probably make.

    Chris Paul Has 3 Years Remaining on his Contract...$39mil, $41mil and $44mil...

    He Just Turned 34 and HASN'T Played More than 61 Games in a Season for 3 Years Now...Even the Lakers AREN'T Dumb Enough to Trade for Him, Given All That Baggage...

    Houston GROSSLY Overpaid Him to Re-Sign and Now They're STUCK w/that Contract...
